It's casual and friendly; many candidates say the interviewers are welcoming and make the process feel more like a conversation than a high-pressure interview.

It was like an open-house hiring event at a local store. We had several desks set up, and you'd go to one when called. Someone would look at your resume, jot down notes about your availability and experience for the job. Then, you'd just wait to hear back if they wanted you for the role. Pretty simple and straightforward.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • What's your availability for shifts and days?
